"When I paid my first official visit to Germany a few months ago and met you, Mr President, you were eager to accept the invitation I extended to you to come to the European Parliament. I recall you telling me that you had a few ideas on the future of Europe that you wanted to share with us. On behalf of the European Parliament, I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the speech you have just given.
Mr President, your speech was that of a great European and visionary, and we have a cruel shortage of visionaries.
Mr President, I am sure you have noticed to what extent the convictions you expressed are in line with those of the vast majority of the Members of the European Parliament. You have, very accurately, in a highly talented way and, once again, with vision, sketched the outlines of the European Constitution to which we all aspire. You have laid great stress on democratic legitimacy. You have also sketched the outlines of this Federation of Nation States with infinite courage and conviction. This morning you have made a substantial contribution to this debate. Once again, Mr President, I thank you from the bottom of my heart."@en1
